    Hello,

    I redirected all non-existed subdomains including example.com itself to www.example.com

    My DNS record has two A records;

    * 123.456.789
    @ 123.456.789

    Should I also add www as an A record or CNAME ?
    I was thinking "*" as an A record will also answer for the requests for www.example.com
    But www.example.com is an existed sub-domain and my DNS will answer ""no error, but no data"" as mentioned at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_DNS_record
    So, if I don't add "www" to my DNS zone separately, is it possible to face with some DNS resolution problems in some ISP's in the World?
